CCS Detroit Summer Program

Hello,

The College for Creative Studies is excited to offer two unique scholarships, exclusively for high school students interested in Transportation Design and/or Fashion Accessories Design. Selected participants will be awarded a full scholarship to attend the three-week CCS Precollege Summer Experience free of charge, while also earning three college credits. I highly encourage you to share this exciting scholarship opportunity with your students!

All students applying for the contest will have their work reviewed by industry professionals—but only a few will be offered scholarships that will cover the cost of attending the program, housing, food, materials and round-trip transportation to Detroit, Michigan.

Through the Dunning Fellows and Scholars Competition, CCS offers 15 students the opportunity to attend our three-week automotive design summer program. Students get an up-close, hands-on view of the automotive design industry while being taught and tutored by designers from GM, Ford and Stellantis.
